Zelenskyy also reported that the Ukrainian negotiating team is already on its way, and a meeting in the United States is scheduled for Saturday.
“The Ukrainian team—specifically the political part of the negotiating group—is already on its way; we expect a meeting in the United States this Saturday,” he said.
